Sto-Rox School District the Child Advocacy Center at UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh are teaming up to present information to the community, including Sto-Rox parents and guardians, about Internet safety, cyberbullying, sexting, and related issues. Three presentations, all running from 6-8 p.m., are scheduled in the Sto-Rox community:

• Wednesday, October 9 at Focus on Renewal, 420 Chartiers Ave, McKees Rocks, PA 15136
• Wednesday, October 16 at Meyers Ridge, 901 Gray St, McKees Rocks, PA 15136
• Wednesday, October 23 at Pleasant Ridge, 251 Jefferson Dr, McKees Rocks, PA 15136

Senior Forensic Interviewers Rick DiBello and Cristina Indick will co-present material that will help parents protect their children from cyber bullying and other problematic social media issues. The district’s Parent/Community Liaison Ed Pierce and its Restorative Practice Coordinator from the University of Pittsburgh, Jennie Smith, are helping to organize these presentations, where DiBello and Indick will cover strategies intended to protect families from online predators, teach responsible behavior online, and promote healthy technology usage. DiBello and Indick regularly present this information to local communities, most recently to the Pittsburgh Public School Parent University. Please consider taking time out of one of your Wednesday evenings to join us for these valuable presentations.
